BMW - 2014-02-05 6:02 PM Armadillos will break the stock of your rifle when you use it for a club after you've used all your ammo and still haven't killed it.

DLV - 2014-02-04 11:42 AM I like racoons! I've only EVER had ONE get into my tack room and he was eating pears, it was cute! I don't kill Opossums either. I respect all animals... I live trap them and move them far away. Just me. A friend of mine stabbed a Opossum to death with a pitch fork and was bragging about it... even if it IS a Opposum, still no way to kill an animal. They can feel pain too. Kill it humanely if you must.
No worries. I don't kill animals. I can't. I just trap them and take them over to the LA/TX border and gently point them west when I turn them loose. I just let the Texans handle it. 
 My dad took the last feral cat he trapped to the country club neighborhood after we got her spayed.  Same concept.  

Snort....my Dad has been gone 3 yrs so probably about 8 yrs ago he decided he was sick of people dumping their cats out here and them migrating to the barn.  He started a kitty relocation program.  He would trap them, go find a nice big barn with livestock around and turn them loose.  I got so dang mad at him he finally stopped but still makes me chuckle what he called his antics.

cowpooh02 - 2014-02-04 10:14 AM I just deleted the pic last week but I had one or five get into my feed room and absolutely destroy it!!! All my unopened feed bags were ripped open and there was feed everywhere! We know it was a raccoon because we caught him in a trap coming back out of the feed room. Just about 3 weeks ago I woke up at about 5 am to my guineas creating a awful racket, which is unusual because they stay in a tree until daylight. I ran outside and a BIG raccoon was chasing all 4 of them around. I yelled and he took off toward the barn. I ran in to get the gun and when I came back out either him or his buddy got caught in the trap. I'm missing more chickens that I care to count.....
The raccoon eats the chickens or just wants them to lay him some eggs??? 
They aren't friendly and will kill chickens, rabbits and kittens. One animal I hate around.
I see....





How about the armadillo's? Do we like them? 
I get such a kick out of the armadillos!  I can definitely see "Newman" in the way they move!    It's about a month till the babies start to appear in fours.  Where you see one baby you will more than likely see 3 more.  They are pretty funny when you scare them and they jump straight in the air.  Of course, my weiner dogs would LOVE to kill them!  My Doberman thinks they are interesting but she doesn't try to kill them.



LRQHS-Please quit sending the racoons our way, Texas is full!  Also, you can stop it with the wild hogs, too!  

 Nope lol....they're your problem now
